(HVS05) A1. Wetman - That Way

It´s a 12 Bit Jungle Out There and it´s touching down on Parallax! 

With releases on PPJ Recordings and Foundation Records and a strong online presence, you can´t escape his Amiga productions right now! His style is unmistakenly his and this EP gives a nice oversight what he´s capable of: great musicality, punchy and juicy breaks, boomin basslines, interesting and unusual arrangements - but hear for yourself. This was a long time in the making and we are happy to finally bring 12 Bit Jungle Out There to your eardrums. 

Your whole life is 'Just A Dream'! This tune was the initial reason we reached out to the man. We saw a short videoclip of him in his hardware studio presenting a rough sketch of it and immediately fell in love with the retro sample paired with the boomin bass, lazy drums and melancholic pianos. It drops superheavy into machinegun amens, 'Right now ya baaaad' vocals and will leave you disoriented until the piano returns to catch you from stumbling over your dancing feet. It´s an adorable tune with just the right mixture of light and darkness again.

Testpresses will be available at the Runout on the 13th April 2025. Be quick!

'You And I' closes the EP in style. This tune is totally 12 Bit Jungle Out There but the way he places things reminds on Lemon D´s way of writing tunes, think I Can´t Stop or Manhattan Melody. Jazzy chords, housey male vocals, and rising and falling harp sounds set the scene and build tension. Just when you´d expect it to drop superhard it surprisingly drops into a dry stepper, only to catch you with an unexpected amen later in the tune. And just when you thought that this tune has all the elements it needs it drops a third time (!) and a hard reecebass cuts your head off clean. A style not revisited so often and a deadly weapon when placed right.

'Pills N Shit' was the last adition to the EP but we´re glad it made it´s way. A rough with the smooth jungle tune. It starts with eastern kungfu-flick-style sounds, a fat 808 and rolling breaks before leading in a quirky summery break with birdsounds, positive pianos and sweet vocals. Fast paced amens with mad edits and psychadelic soundeffects keep you on your toes throughout. It´s euphoric but pleases the dancefloor at the same time. "We used to go for walks on pills n shit', what a dope tune!

12 Bit Jungle Out There - Pills an Shit [PARA025]

Sonar´s Ghost returns to Parallax and makes his debut on lathe-cut label PARADUBS. 

'Box Of Delights' is a homage to a certain tune that put the Full Cycle label of the Bristol posse surrounding Roni Size, Die, Krust and Suv on the map back in the day. Can you guess which track it refers to? Classy rollin breaks, 'come on' shouts, 'inside my mind' vocal and jazz flavors are the order of the day here. Something to bop your head and get lost into, something to roll out a long mix with. Then the second break enters with a soothing female vocal and more jazzy licks. This has style! Spring is here, put this on loud and open the windows!

50 lathe cuts will be available at the Runout on the 13th April 2025, the rest goes up on Bandcamp to a date yet to be announced. Be quick!
